Where: Online, via Zoom
Who: EOP and Kaleidoscope Network Members only

Not sure if your website is working? Need to develop your web presence but don’t know where to start?

Too often artists’ websites are hard to navigate, often because people are too close to the work so can’t see when key information is missing, struggle to edit what they put online so end up confusing rather than engaging, or when site structures are hard to navigate.

Led by Harry Blackett from An Endless Supply, this workshop will begin with a short introduction to all things web including top tips on how to build a site, where to host, and what to think about when putting one together in terms of structure, layout and visual identity.

This will be followed by smaller, informal breakout group discussions where participants can share their own websites and get feedback as people use them for the first time. This is a great way to learn how the user experience feels for people who are new to your site and to get suggestions and tips from other participants and Harry that will help you develop and improve it in the future.
